Another Spectacular Success For Media Memory Hole - Jonathan Schwartz points out that five years ago Jordan's King Abudallah was told by Bush that the people responsible for Abu Ghraib would be brought to justice. In the recent visit by Abdullah to the Obama White House, this has not been brought up, and Obama does not want to prosecute those who drafted the torture memos in the name of avoiding the "politicization". Incidentally this the exact same attitude that led to no one in the US being held responsible for the catastrophic laxism that made 9.11 possible - notably the promotion of Rice despite her ignoring the August 2001 memo, and the failure of the Pentagon to scramble planes in time.
